Mullins in melancholy

October 23, 2023

The late Rich Mullins was peerless in his ability to write Christian songs that somehow mixed the melancholy loneliness of human life with the awe that we have a friend and savior who can see and feel life exactly as we do.

And so when we feel the pull of a beauty we can’t describe, in a frame of sadness that only we know, it turns out someone else does know. But only one. The God who made it all, and knows it all, and knows you all.

He’s always by your side, and he can always see and feel what you do. And he knows. And he loves you.

Here Mullins is, playing one of his best.

b) have uncomfortable but honest conversations.

 

c) Reduce the stigma surrounding antidepressants, antipsychotics, and other meds God has given us as gifts.

 

And…

 

d) Sometimes (tons of times), we all feel really, really depressed in our journey. Hopefully, this site makes you feel less alone.
